Hi

I think this is another Cypriote coin, probably a copper sixain of James II (1460-1473), though it is even more crudely engraved than these usually are.

Obv. Rampant lion, + IACOBVS . dEI G R round (upside down on your photo)
Rev. Jerusalem cross, + IERSALE[....] (or similar, usually with abbreviations for CIPR [Cyprus] and ARMENIE ([Armenia]) round, starting at 3 o'clock on your photo.

Best wishes

Alan
